I’ve been shopping estates and keep finding botched reaming jobs. As I understand when done properly with a senior reamer or even a Butner style reamer it should not overbore the bowl or drill it out of round. I’ve done it flawlessly both ways.
Are people doing reams with power tools? I’ve looked at several pipes where they were overbored and out of round, you could feel where the new drilling introducing a new ‘round’ outside of the pipe chamber’s original round (2 diameters with one slightly offset) and see that the top was out of round - thin one side thick on the other. Seems it has to be from a power tool.
